Working in Truro

We work right across Truro — TR1 — and in neighbouring Falmouth and Redruth.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Truro: free survey, written quote, one team. If nobody in your Truro home has used the bath in years, we can price a walk-in shower layout next to a shorter bath so you can compare. If your Truro bathroom is a box room over the stairs, the first job is finding out where the soil stack lets the WC sit.

Water across much of Cornwall is soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A measured survey including the door swing, window position, soil stack and any boxing that could be slimmed down
Lighting, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Shorter, narrower or shower baths where a full 1700 mm bath does not sit well
Space-saving sanitaryware: a short-projection or wall-hung WC and a compact or semi-recessed basin

Decisions to make first

Glass

Clear glass with a slim profile or none lets the eye travel through the room. A fixed panel needs no clearance for a door to swing.

Door

Re-hanging the door to open outwards, or fitting a sliding door, frees the space behind it. In a very small room this alone can make space for a bigger shower.

Rules that apply in England

In England, changes to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower are notifiable under Part P, so use an electrician registered with a competent person scheme. If you replace the extractor fan, do not fit one that extracts less than the old one; Approved Document F gives 15 litres per second for an intermittent bathroom fan.

Wall-hung or floor-standing toilet in a small bathroom?

A wall-hung toilet makes a small bathroom look larger and is easier to clean around, because the floor runs underneath it. It needs a concealed frame inside a false wall or boxing roughly 150 to 200 mm deep, which can often go where pipe boxing already sits. A back-to-wall pan in a slim furniture unit is a good middle option.
